Housing

Boston is a wonderful city in which to live. It is a city of culture, art, architecture, technology, and education. From the blossoms in the spring to the fall foliage for which New England is famous, along with winter snow, you are sure to find a new city each time the seasons change. Downtown Boston is the hub of the metropolitan area, and suburban Boston is well within reach of the heart of the city. Boston is a great American city, unlike any city in which you might have lived or visited. It is a student city with more than sixty colleges in the metropolitan area.

As you, and perhaps your family, begin to search for adequate housing in Boston, there are several things you should know. First, you must take the initiative to find housing. The Office of Admissions can be helpful in answering your questions about housing, and by providing potential housing options, but it is unable to make all necessary arrangements for you. Second, though the Admissions Office works very hard to find affordable options for incoming students, housing is more expensive in Boston than it is in many parts of the country.

You have options to consider, both on or around campus, or further away if you wish. The following is meant to help you begin your search. Please contact the Admissions Office when you have secured housing.
